    Reminder:

    "According to the Republican nominee for president, his opponents were "on the verge of maybe perpetrating one of the greatest frauds in voter history." In an ad, his campaign warned of "nationwide voter fraud" that could swing the election. His running mate worried, in a fundraising letter, that "leftist groups" were trying to "steal the election."

    The candidate was not Donald Trump. It was Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who in the final weeks of the 2008 presidential election embraced the theory that ACORN, a community organizing group previously embraced by Democrats and Republicans, was helping to rig the election for Barack Obama by filing fake voter registration forms."

    ‘Rigged’ election talk didn’t start with Trump

    (EDIT: Golly! The new LP board even copies and pastes the internal links.)

    AKA grasping at straws AKA preparing for a fight if it ends up closer than expected AKA dying and desperate (all of which apply to Trump at this point far more than McCain on his worst day!).

    p.s. ACORN was destroyed in the process, which to me seemed unfair but the Democrats (with Barney Frank at the fore) were just as eager to kill it as the Republicans for whatever reason.
